This nation is facing a significant nursing faculty shortage not only at the undergraduate but also at the graduate level. As nursing faculty, we must be innovative in considering ways of consolidating resources in this time of demand for advanced practice nurses. With the apparent need for qualified neonatal nurse practitioners in Iowa, the University of Iowa understood the importance of starting a neonatal nurse practitioners program. The University of Iowa College of Nursing and the University of Missouri-Kansas City formed a partnership to educate neonatal nurse practitioners. Although this partnership concentrates on a specific subspecialty population, it can serve as a pilot project that could be adapted by those who care for other diverse populations. The nurse faculty shortage requires innovative solutions, and a model such as this one may provide solutions for other institutions.

The action of retinoic acid on spermatogonia in the testis.
Curr Top Dev Biol
January 2025
School of Molecular Biosciences, Washington State University, Pullman, Washington, United States. Electronic address:
For mammalian spermatogenesis to proceed normally, it is essential that the population of testicular progenitor cells, A undifferentiated spermatogonia (A), undergoes differentiation during the A to A1 transition that occurs at the onset of spermatogenesis. The commitment of the A population to differentiation and leaving a quiescent, stem-like state gives rise to all the spermatozoa produced across the lifespan of an individual, and ultimately determines male fertility. The action of all-trans retinoic acid (atRA) on the A population is the determining factor that induces this change.
